Figure 3. Functional Diagram
The MAX1276/MAX1278 use an input T/H and succes-
sive-approximation register (SAR) circuitry to convert
an analog input signal to a digital 12-bit output. The
serial interface requires only three digital lines (SCLK,
CNVST, and DOUT) and provides easy interfacing to
microprocessors (µPs) and DSPs. Figure 3 shows the
simplified internal structure for the MAX1276/MAX1278.

Negative Analog Input
Reference Voltage Output. Internal 4.096V reference output. Bypass REF with a 0.01µF capacitor and
a 4.7µF capacitor to RGND.
Reference Ground. Connect RGND to GND.
Positive Analog Supply Voltage (+4.75V to +5.25V). Bypass V
capacitor to GND.
No Connection
Ground. GND is internally connected to EP.
Positive Logic Supply Voltage (1.8V to V
to GND.
Serial Data Output. Data is clocked out on the rising edge of SCLK.
Convert Start. Forcing CNVST high prepares the part for a conversion. Conversion begins on the
falling edge of CNVST. The sampling instant is defined by the falling edge of CNVST.
Serial Clock Input. Clocks data out of the serial interface. SCLK also sets the conversion speed.
Positive Analog Input
Exposed Paddle. EP is internally connected to GND.
